Yoda: It's papier mache. Strips of paper (usually newsprint) coated with glue and then wrapped around to create three-dimensional shapes. You can use wire armatures as a starting point, but it's not essential.

Azrael: I don't sell them--it's illegal/unethical to profit from someone else's intellectual property without their consent/compensation. My home is, as you say, just decorated with multitudes of little beasties I've made.

I think most schools do teach papier mache, at least in the United States. I can recall doing several papier mache projects in art class as a lad, usually by applying the strips to balloons to create hollow, lightweight constructs.

While I would consider doing a commission for an original work, generally, I just like to sculpt the things I want to make--I don't really enjoy having to deal with money, deadlines, and all the other stuff that goes with trying to turn a profit.

Fyle: The only Zelda sculpture I've made to date is an Octorok--I might make something else from one of the Zelda games someday. Nothing from Diablo particularly enthralls me, and I've never played any of the Elder Scrolls games.

I feel he should be wearing a top hat while carrying a chained pocket watch in his open hand. Perhaps even the dastardly villain mustache, a cane in his other hand (daimond studded top, of course)...and perhaps a railroad track and damsel rope-tied on it. (Don't forget the black cape too)

I was pretty much just trying to replicate the sprite's pose in 3D, but I agree that the pose has a certain philosophical flavor to it--I suppose an undead dragon, assuming it still had a mind, would have much to ruminate about.
